About Sandra
Sandra Henderson is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She works with people dealing with grief, life changes and trauma. Sandra draws on 16 years of experience to offer steady, practical support in times of strain.
She believes people bring useful strengths to their own lives and uses that as a starting point for work together. Sessions are conversational and focused on real problems rather than labels.
Background and approach
Sandra aims to make the steps forward feel manageable, one at a time. Her approach mixes attention to personal history with practical tools. She combines Attachment-Based ideas about how relationships shape us with Client-Centred listening and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques for changing unhelpful patterns.
That means looking at past influences, how thoughts and actions interact, and what can be tried differently now. Sandra has supported people through issues such as addiction, domestic violence, family problems and separation. She also works with concerns around intimacy, codependency, attachment difficulties and ageing.
Her practice covers a broad range of life events and emotional struggles. Sessions are offered in English and Sandra accepts international clients. She aims to help people feel clearer about their choices, build coping skills, and reduce the overwhelm that comes with major life changes.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Sandra commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current fears and patterns. This approach can help when intimacy, abandonment or long-standing trust issues are causing distress. It focuses on understanding relationship habits and trying new, healthier ways of relating.She also uses Client-Centred Therapy which puts the person's own experience at the centre. The counsellor offers empathic listening and acceptance while the person leads the pace and topics. This is useful for people who need time to make sense of grief, life transitions or identity questions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sandra will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try first. Decisions are collaborative so the plan can change as progress is made.
Online sessions can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging lets people reflect in their own time. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care.
